    Evengyny Thanks for the memories!
    SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."
    Orla Zuniga It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
    Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
    Tin Ton And Im not exaggerating. Usually with fan produced stuff you notice the budged constraints and somewhat beginner approach quickly, the color grading, some actors and their performance, story lines etc... This however, boy. The guy playing Kirk is indistinguishable from Shatner almost, the mannerism, the stance, the voice pattern. Its all spot on. The camera work is exactly the same as in TOS. While the surroundings are a throwback to TOS, combined with today's CGI, its at the same time a perfect homage to the original and also a polished excellent product as a series. And lets not forget the stories, the core of ST. We all know certain ST series were/are not up to par on that front. The ST stories were extremely witty moral quandaries with exceptional, often completely unforeseen, twists at the end and at the same times often breaking social taboos. This series sticks hard to that in most episodes while at the same times balancing it out wonderfully with enough humour and action as the original TOS and other great ST series.All in all, please give it a chance if you are a ST fan and especially if you like and cherish the original series with Kirk. This show has none of the drawbacks of other fan made series, there is zero evidence its anything other than 100% studio financed product in terms of production and at the same times 100% loyal to all the core values and elements of ST universe that we love and that made it great.
    shrame Honestly, I didn't know what to expect when I watched the first episode on YouTube but this really looks and feels like the original series. The sets, costumes, the story lines, even the effects are spot on. The acting, for some of the crew was a little wooden at first, but by the latest episode, the entire crew has evolved and improved significantly. It's really remarkable what these people have done with their passion and such a small budget, as opposed to some of the garbage that comes out of Hollywood these days. I would love to see this get mainstream exposure, a bigger budget, a release on Netflix or on an appropriate channel like the SciFi network or CometTV. In my opinion it's even better than the recent reboot films and I'm not lying when I say that there are times where I'll be watching this and I'll forget that it's not the real thing, especially the actor that plays Captain Kirk, he really has the mannerisms down to a science.
    louk-81235 I am a huge Star Trek fan and over the years have greatly enjoyed all of the Star Trek series as well as the many movies . My Favorite series was & always will be the original Star Trek, with Shatner, Nimoy & the rest.So when I was lucky to find Star Trek Continues, I was absolutely & happily mesmerized with it from the first episode on.The way it picks up & continues on from some of the original episodes is brilliant. The stories are very well written & the actors are top-notch in their roles. Vic Mignogna plays William Shatner's Captain Kirk to perfection & Todd Haberkorn does the same for Leonard Nimoy's Mr. Spock.Everything about this series is purely amazing, especially for the fans who started with the original Star Trek in the 1960's.I look forward to watching the last 3 episodes but will be saddened to see Star Trek Continues come to an end. I recommend this Web series to everyone!
    johan-herstad The production quality on this show is undeniably fantastic. The tone is near spot on. But you would not know this if you are not a fan of the original and/or don't love the now campy nature of the original show. If you didn't laugh at William Shatner's falstaffian character then, you might miss out on this. The biggest understandable complaint that I agree with is the quality of some of the actors. I love the actor playing Kirk. But Spock, Scotty and a few others aren't the best fit. But it's clearly a work of love. I laugh and cheer when I watch this, lovingly. It's a very good sign that some of the reviews here are either very negative or very positive. It means that they've gone all in, as any artistic endeavour ideally should strive to do.
